Sober at the ginnery

…in 100 words as it’s just too damn hot to type much:

Record-breaking ginning rates, 100+ bales/day, up from ~50 in November! Thanks to better bonuses, motivated technicians & borrowed generator.

Fairtrade = admin nightmare, but making good progress towards being the first FT cotton in E. Africa!

Submitted proposal for $$$ grant-funding to expand the support for farmers, now nervously waiting for results…

Cotton & sesame buying nearly finished, but exceeded all expectations: 7.2m kgs of cotton, nearly 400,000 kgs of sesame.  

Professional photographer coming tomorrow, better choose a nice outfit

So tired, can’t wait for holiday…
